1968 F100 Tires and Wheels

Hello,
Does anyone know what the stock wheel and tire sizes were for a 1968 F100?

I've been looking everywhere I can think of with no luck.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
Jim

Hello Jim. Welcome to FTE.

The listing for a '67 F100 tire calls for 8.15 x 15. Can't see why the '68 would be different.

Thanks a lot. You wouldn't happen to know the wheel width would you?

I have LT216/75R15 tire size on my 68. The Bias tire puts less stress on the front end parts. But the radial will handle better. I'm running a load range C tires. As what was factory I do not know.
